Book Blurb from Amazon:

'Please help me ... my wife is trying to kill me.'

When police officers Meera Dixit and Aditya Sachdev investigate a panicked midnight phone call, they are drawn into the unhappy story of a couple-a woman slowly losing her grip on sanity and her husband living in constant fear of death. As they delve deeper, the officers realize that this case is more knotted than anything they've dealt with before.

Is Tanvi Acharya really sick? What caused Rohit's insomnia? Do deeper secrets lie below the surface?

As they try to make sense of the sinister goings-on in the house, Dixit and Sachdev hurtle toward a shocking revelation that they are not prepared for.

My Thoughts As A Reader:

Being an avid reader, I have read several fiction and thriller novels. As I started reading the book, I found myself engrossed in the plot, such that I could determine the killer at any moment in the upcoming chapters. But I could only identify the half of it. By half, I mean the plot twisted in the end, and my guess went incomplete.

So, I must say the author brought the whole story into this book is intriguing. I guess this was the fastest read of my this year to date as I could not resist knowing what happened next. In this book, you will read fifty-six short chapters that lead to the thrill, mystery, crime, and murder. I was awestruck when I realized who the murderer was in the last chapter and how a person could be opportunist enough to give way to greed over dreams.

The overall experience of reading this book has been worth investing time in. I loved the plot as the author assured keeping only the required details that complete the story without leaving readers hanging to find out what might have happened. The best part is the short chapters. I feel so as I proceed chapter by chapter quickly, not realizing how far I had read and reached the end.

This book won't disappoint you. Give it a try, and you will thank me later for recommending this book.
